>>It's just....I never felt old before this thread....and now I am 25 and I am too old to do something....

I know it's pretty funny... I'm old too. Yes, I'm pushing 30 but I would by no means consider myself old.... I don't act old. I have the MINI keeping me from the nursing home I guess. I'll be in your Old Club, if you'll have me. Or am I too old for that one too?

See, society "accepts" you as an adult once you turn 25. You can rent a car, you insurance goes down. I think we might be able to set the bar to include people that are 25.

The one thing that hasn't been discussed here is what exactly is so special and important about being "under 25" that can't be understood by someone who is, like, 26? Sorry, but this whole thing seems kind of juvenile. Hey wait...that's the point! Doh!!

I think its a good idea. In addition to having the MINI in common, we are all young and at a different stage in our life than the older people on this site so we can unite on that as well. I think the cut off being 24 is good age limit, or maybe 25. Also its just like any other mini club. Instead of dividing by where you live though, its by age.

Guys.... as a fellow youngin' (yet at 22 I'm a senior to most of you) I must ask that you represent the raked-over-the-coals-on-car-insurance generation with a bit more pride. Namely in the form of PUNCTUATION!!! :smile:

OMToast - I agree completely, even though I usually speak in fragments on this board.

Hey CooperSpeed - Who elected you president!!! RABBLE RABBLE RABBLE RABBLE!

I think the "raked over the coals" insurance thing is the dividing line. If insurance companies says we're children and 25 year olds aren't, then who are we to argue?

I definately want to be a part of this unless we start getting AIM-speak like OMG ROFL DWMC FUUHPC etc.

I PMed you CSpeed

We should create a chat for the young motorers on Yahoo or something. Or better yet on the website Cooper Speed has set up.

I'm new to this site and I noticed your thread and became almost instantly depressed.
Not only am I past my prime at the ripe old age of 26, but I don't even own a MINI.
I do however own a Mini, yes that would be the parent of your car. Talk about old!
Now go to bed you little twerps before i take away your car keys!

Site is updated. You now need to apply to post in the forum and talk in the chat room. A lot of features are gone though. My server is tupid when it comes to replacing files. It sees the name of the odler file and thinks it is still there so it uses the older file instead of the new one. Anyways, I won't need to update anymore. Have fun with it guys.

I took restrictions off the forum. You should be able to post at will. You can got to http://www.network54.com and make your own account, then you could sign in. Right now you don't need a log in. What type of system do you have Jordan? Well I am on my 4th beer, party on!
